Being Paid for Chores....
I know I've seen a thread on semi of this before. I have a really hard time with this. There are some things I don't pay for like making beds, cleaning your room, or playroom. Vacuuming, counters, dishwasher, folding laundry etc.. is paid. They used to be able to earn going somewhere with mom/dad, playing a game, maybe a treat etc.. With my 5 yr. and 7 yr. old they only fold, and make beds so they get paid for both. I've been thinking of having them take care of the dishwasher too. My now 13 yr. old is not happy about this as it will take away from his $$. On one hand I want them to have responsibility with $$ and not depend on getting paid, but on the other do they get paid, or should some things get paid and not others. I know everyone has their way on doing things, but these days I'm feeling stronger and stronger on getting paid with chores. I also want them to be able to feel good about having $$ to buy presents for birthdays and Christmas.
Any thoughts please!! Kelley |
